Atlanta Falcons, Bryce and Panthers
Digest more
Bryce Young is in a crucial season of his career right now. The quarterback had his fifth-year option picked up, but he has not received a long-term extension. By all accounts, the Panthers‘ front office wants to see a little more from Young before they commit.
Bryce Young has 648 passing yards and six touchdowns through two games, but his fifth-year option gives Carolina time to wait.
The Lions will host the Jets this Sunday on a 3-day rest advantage. They will also play this game at home, where Goff has proved far better in his Lions career. Goff's TD:INT rate is nearly twice as good when at home (about 5:1). He is averaging 18 more yards per game when at Ford Field.
Bryce Young completed 23-of-36 passes for 287 yards and three touchdowns in the Panthers' 34-3, Week 2 win over the Falcons.
Bryce Young and Jaxon Smith-Njigba each accounted for three touchdowns in Week 2, and Julian Edelman and Rob Gronkowski picked them as their Employees of the Week.
Young has been throwing downfield more with the 34-year-old Idzik calling the offense. He’s tied for third with Josh Allen in average air yards per completion (8.8) — behind Trevor Lawrence and Jalen Hurts — and tied for fourth in average air yards per attempt (10.2), according to NFL Next Gen Stats.
